California Umbrella Grove Series Market Umbrella

No, the Grove Series is a fixed-position market umbrella and does not feature a tilt mechanism. It is designed to provide consistent, vertical shade directly beneath the canopy.

This model uses a simple push-up lift system. You manually push the hub up the pole until it locks into place, and pull the pin to release it when you are ready to close it.

Yes, the Grove Series is built with commercial-grade construction, featuring a sturdy hardwood pole and reinforced rib joints designed to withstand the higher traffic and usage demands of restaurants or hospitality spaces.

It features a single wind vent at the top, which allows air to pass through and reduces the risk of the umbrella lifting or tipping in a breeze. However, like all market umbrellas, it should be closed and secured when not in use or during high winds.

The umbrella is available in Olefin, Pacifica, and Sunbrella fabrics. Sunbrella is generally considered the industry standard for long-term fade resistance and durability, while Olefin and Pacifica offer excellent performance and value for residential and commercial settings.

The pole diameter is 1.5 inches. You will need a base that can accommodate this width and is heavy enough to support a 9-foot canopy; for freestanding use, we recommend a base weighing at least 50 pounds.
